Was Santa Clause real ??

Introduction 

  Many people don't believe in Santa Clause but he his real. He was born 270 A.D in a small Greek village in the southern coast which is now Turkey. According to Christian tradition he was named Saint Nicolas because of the many good deeds he did. His good deeds were giving gold to many poor people in his village while they were asleep on Christmas. That is why many people believe that Santa Clause gives gifts to children.

                 My Opinion

  I believe that  Santa was alive back then. I don't believe that he is still around today. It is true that there was a Saint Nick, but that was very long ago.  I feel that it was very nice of Saint Nick to give gold to poor people. I think  that is was vey unselfish and kind for him to think of other people that way. Because of his good deed, he is very popular. That was not his intension witch means he didn't give that to people gold  just to become famous. He did it out of the kindness of his heart.
